Then I wonder how you came up with the idea of patenting this stuff.
Do you hope to obtain the patent(s) even if your ideas are not novel at
all and happen to be already used in those other algorithms that you
gave up learning?

To Boosters: Note that this (the patenting part), unfortunately, is not
entirely off topic here...
